we should do a survey of which languages have "lambdas" where you can do anything at all with the lambda besides execute it
like say determine whether or not some I/O operation will successfully run

if you can't, then a lambda is a glorified function pointer

if you need to do more things than just execute it why not pass an object instead

thats kind of the whole point of lambdas, theyre meant to be code as a first class object in the language

seems like they really missed a chance in java to have proper features that support the language in the virtual machine
like imagine something like const except it really means "this is immutable" and the runtime can prove that things are invariant and optimise stuff really well and all the getters and setters can gently caress off
i mean they already have a fancy managed reference type instead of a pointer into some abstract machines flat address space so why not capitalise on that
instead of make a language that barely does any more than C
